"Initial Services", the new phase of the Galileo program
Dr ing Marco Lisi
The benefits for users, in Europe and worldwide, arising from the declaration of the "Initial Services" are immediate and tangible...The official declaration of the Galileo "Initial Services" in December last year and the new phase of service delivery confirm, in spite of much controversy, the strategic, economic, technological and technical value of the Galileo program...

Space Weather, from the Sun to the Earth, the key role of GNSS
Dr Christine Amory-Mazaudier, Dr Rolland Fleury, Sharafat Gadimova and Professor Abderrahmane Touzani
The goal of this paper is to give a clear view of the Sun Earth relationships that are complex. The phenomena acting at large scales and essentially related to dynamic and electromagnetic physical processes have been addressed. Besides physics, the work done to develop the training in Space Weather by focusing on Global Navigation Satellite Systems has also been presented. Readers may recall that we published the first part of this article which focused on physics of the relationships Sun, Earth and Meteorology of Space. In this issue, aspects of GNSS training and capacity building are discussed ... [more] |

Fit for Purpose Parcel Mapping Methodologies for a Seamless Cadastre Database
Jack McKenna
Parcel mapping that ensures secure land tenure for a large percentage of a nation’s citizens can be produced at an acceptable and Fit-for-purpose level of accuracy using general boundary survey techniques that are a small fraction of the cost of parcel mapping created using fixed boundary survey techniques. Readers may recall that
the first part of this article was published in the last issue. We present here the concluding part of the paper
